Manufacturer: MicroJig Price as tested: $20 Link: https://www.microjig.com/products/grr-ripper2-go If you have a table saw, you need a push block. It can be as simple as a scrap stick or as fancy as the MicroJig Grr-Ripper Pro all over YouTube. There’s a middle ground in the Grr-Ripper 2Go. It’s magically grippy, far more than my generic store-bought block or homemade plywood board. And compared to a narrow stick, it’s easier to push inward and down with one hand.  The 2Go handles narrow cuts down to 5/16” as long as you don’t also use a blade guard. I wish the sample they sent…

Is there a Finnish or Japanese word for existential holiday dread? There should be. I suppose the closest thing would be to borrow a term of Ebenezer Scrooge: ba hum bug? That’s certainly how I’m feeling as this long year barrels to a close. But admitting it publicly sure feels like a sordid, illicit confession since lack of festive cheer is the ultimate holiday trespass. But I have good reason for my seasonal grinchiness. A few weeks ago, my partner of four years announced he needed some time and space and couldn’t do “this” at the moment — this being…

One of the questions I get most often from readers after international trips is: “How do you bargain at local markets?” Obviously, in a department store or mall, prices are fixed. But in a Turkish rug shop in Istanbul or a bustling souk in Marrakesh, negotiation is expected. Haggling can feel daunting at first, but done respectfully, it can save money, support artisans and even lead to memorable interactions with locals. After reading the New York Times article, “How to Haggle When There’s No Set Price”, I realized it is an incredibly helpful resource for all travelers. What really makes…

It’s always a shock to witness the scale of things in China’s Bay Area. Despite only being the third largest national central city in China, Shenzhen dwarfs the combined population of the three largest US cities. Descending toward Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport, this notion of scale is reinforced, as one immense skyscraper after another dominates the horizon, even as new construction dots the outskirts of the city. Likewise, Maker Faire Shenzhen continues to grow and impress. This year saw the debut of the Innovation Ambassadors program, which elevated the event significantly by incorporating of a core cadre of established makers…

It feels nearly impossible to pick where to visit in Mexico. There are more amazing beaches, mountains, deserts, and vineyards (yes, vineyards) spread across the country than one can count, each with its own set of historical ruins, cultural cuisines, and spectacular vacation home rentals to explore. Once you’ve decided where in this gorgeous country to settle down, picking an Airbnb from the many great options can feel like a Herculean task.Be it the expansive desert landscape of Baja California Sur, where adventure enthusiasts will find plenty of outdoor pursuits, or the glittering Caribbean shores of the Yucatán Peninsula, for…

Electric composters simplify and speed up the natural composting process, turning food scraps into compost more efficiently than manual composting methods. While traditional composting is a great way to reduce landfill waste and create nutrient-rich soil, without the help of a machine, it can take at least 4 weeks and often involves odors, pests, and frequent maintenance. Many people don’t have the space or time to manage an outdoor compost pile. Electric composters offer a faster, cleaner alternative. Though they don’t produce traditional compost, they create a soil additive in just a few hours or days by drying and grinding…

Poppy Kuroki delivers a stunning blend of historical tension, poignant romance, and high-stakes fantasy in Passage to Tokyo, the second installment in her Ancestor Memories series with the first being Gate to Kagoshima that I already reviewed. While this story works beautifully as a standalone, its core—a woman thrown backward in time, facing an impossible ethical dilemma is one that is utterly captivating.
